Where do I start with the Seth writings by Jane Roberts?
Seth, an "energy personality essence no longer focused in physical reality," was channeled by a medium named Jane Roberts, primarily in the 1960s and 1970s. She worked closely with her husband, Robert Butts, to record all of their sessions with Seth. This resulted in a body of work that maintains a consistency across topics over years like no other. The material (often referred to as "The Seth Material," not be be confused with the book by the same name) covers a wide variety of topics including reincarnation, life after death, life on earth, creativity, pyschology, world history, the power of thought, physics, science and so much more.
